PIZZAPizza is in fact Greek in its origin as the Ancient Greeks were known to have covered their bread with cheese, oils and herbs. Nonetheless, modern pizza originated in Italy as a pie that was made with tomatoes, cheese not being added as an ingredient until 1889. That year Queen Margherita of Italy was served a pizza that had been made to resemble the Italian flag. It contained red tomatoes, white mozzarella and green basil; hence this type of pizza is known as the Margherita after her.
